How can we pursue peace in our communities and around the world? Author, speaker, and global activist Lynn Hybels shares stories of her experiences around the world as part of her meditations on the season of Advent. Through her social justice work in the Middle East and in Africa, Lynne learned four lessons: 1) violent conflict has the capacity to destroy everything from the lives of the poor to the lifelong works of the powerful; 2) what happens on the grassroots level has more impact than we think; 3) peacemaking is an essential skill for social change and reconciliation, and 4) the call to peacemaking is a call to rigorous and humble discipleship. Lynne leaves Wheaton students with a challenge: humbly yet steadfastly pursue peace both in life as students and in careers around the world.
